What the data says

CMS rates staffing here at 2 stars — the bottom third of Texas nursing homes on this measure. Each resident receives about 226 minutes of nursing care per day, roughly 15 minutes less than at a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas. Of that total, only 22 minutes come from a registered nurse; a 4-star facility in Texas would provide about 37 RN minutes per resident daily.

One administrator has turned over in the past year — an elevated rate by CareWitness's state-relative measure. A single leadership change can disrupt care coordination and staff morale; the extent of that effect depends on how long the prior administrator was in place and how quickly the new one has settled in.

The facility is running at 66% of its 127 licensed beds, with about 84 residents on a typical day. That occupancy level, paired with a 2-star staffing rating, means the beds are less than two-thirds full yet staffing still rates below most Texas peers — which is an unusual combination worth exploring with the facility.

Questions to ask when you tour

  1. Staffing levels on nights and weekends

    With a 2-star staffing rating and 226 daily nursing minutes per resident, ask how many nurses and aides are on the floor during evenings, nights, and weekends specifically.

  2. Current administrator's tenure

    One administrator turned over in the past year; ask how long the current administrator has been in the role and what prompted the change.

  3. Why occupancy sits at 66%

    At roughly 84 residents in a 127-bed facility, ask whether the lower census reflects a recent referral pattern change, staffing limits on admissions, or another operational factor.

  4. Short-stay quality-of-care outcomes

    CMS rates short-stay quality measures at 2 stars; ask what the facility tracks for residents recovering from surgery or illness, and how it compares to prior years.

  5. Resident Council activity

    The facility has a Resident Council but no Family Council; ask how often the Resident Council meets and how family members can raise concerns between visits.
